A Deadly Education

I love Naomi Novik a lot, and her writing style is great, but premise-wise this book just wasn't for me. It's sort of a fun twist on the magical school genre, but it's still at its heart a magical school book with teen drama and regular monster attacks, something I might enjoy as a tv show, but that just doesn't work for me in a book. If you're into magical school drama, this is probably a great choice for you, but I'm hoping she returns to her eastern European historical fantasies soon.
